Dutch term or phrase: tubelures

Het lassen van zwaar en licht plaatwerk. Het lassen van tubelures, flens- en pijpverbindingen.

Onderstaande link geeft een paar goede plaatjes waaruit duidelijk wordt wat tubelures precies zijn (een soort kort buisje dat op een grote buis kan worden gelast). Maar hoe heeft zo'n ding in het engels?

Correctie - dat is een Nederlandse site (on)vertaald.
Een ander woord voor tubelures dat ik vind is "wartels" maar dat lijkt me ook niet correct voor dit plaatje (wartel is oogbout met draaibare schalm).
Het lijkt eerder om "tube to plate welding" te gaan....

Notes to answerer

Asker:

Asker: Thanks Lianne, that was quick! The link you give is an English translation of a Dutch site. Makes me wonder whether 'tubelures' is indeed the correct translation or whether their translated site is perhaps of poor quality? I'd love some more 'proof' that tubelure is correct English...

1 hr confidence:

nozzle and accompanying accessories

Explanation:
I can find the word "tubulure" in French, and I'm pretty sure it means the same as tubelure in Dutch. The French term means "nozzle" and all the accessories required to provide an interface (inlet or outlet) to another component in a pipeline.
